The English Football League 2019-20


7-2

Recommended Posts

Sol Campbell at Macclesfield:

- Saved the club from almost certain relegation last season.
- Sit 8th in the current League Two standings.
- Beat League One table-toppers Blackpool away in the Cup on Tuesday night.
- Leaves the club by mutual consent this morning.

Gonna guess Macclesfield financially aren't doing to well ?

Campbell did a good job and should get a bigger club. Seems strange if they're financially fucked now seeing as they did a lot of business in the transfer market, unless Campbell is following the Harry Redknapp textbook to management.

The fourth Bury league match in a row to be suspended, when even the spineless blazers running Scottish football would have kicked them out of the league system by the end of July. English football's bizarre urge to mollycoddle basketcase outfits and give them seventeen chances to clean up their act - or just outright fold like Leeds did and then waltz back in as if nothing had ever happened - is truly laughable.

Agreed, it's just such a mess. Their owner didn't even get subjected to the (already flawed) "fit and proper person" test. I've got no sympathy for the people responsible for this mess, but it's unfortunately once again the fans who I do feel for...

Yea I heard they are in serious trouble financially since last season.

EFL is just a disgrace.

Strange one considering they had a no bad start to the season. Maybe disagreeing over budgets, players? Don’t know just speculating

I read he hadn't been paid for 4 months. I don't follow the club closely but from the outside he looks to have done a decent job in really difficult circumstances

MUST LISTEN! [emoji343]

Bury midfielder Stephen Dawson says he’ll lose everything due to unpaid wages.

#BuryFC owner Steve Dale claims Dawson has been paid.

We put Dale and Dawson on-air together to clear things up.

You have to take 10 minutes to hear this incredible clash... https://t.co/Mt0y6eA6PV

Hopefully link works. Very sad

Sol Campbell left Macclesfield yesterday.

I'm a sausage. Correct haha

Not really! Campbell apparently decided to leave while Siewert was sacked so I'd say he was technically the first actual casualty. 😉

Bury have until the 23rd to show proof of funds or they’ll be expelled from the league.

Expulsion in this case will kill the club as no other league will be letting them join at this stage.
